Most likely too late to the party, but if possible, I wanted your thoughts, as a former employee of an incident that happened to me.

I bought a used Xbox 360 at a Gamestop, I used it for a few months before the drive started making scratching noises and killed the game that was in it, upon further inspection, I found that the Xbox 360 had been modded.

I went back to the gamestop, as it came with a 1 year warranty (not sure if that's normal or just in norway), but gamestop refused to look at it, instead they told me to contact microsoft themselves.

Now, luckily microsoft didn't make a fuzz about it having been modded and just gave me a new one after I provided proof of purchase etc.. but I asked a friend that worked at a gamestop in Sweden, and he said that what that Gamestop had done was against their policy in several ways, for one, the Xbox 360 shouldn't have been sold, had it been found to have been modded in the first place.

So yeah, what's your opinion?

It was pretty lucky and my replacement Xbox has been working well since I got it, bit on the loud side, but most Xboxes were xD

Thank you for the response :)

And yes, I stopped using that particular gamestop since that incident, I live close enough to Sweden that I just started using the gamestop my friend worked at, had one minor issue with a new employee, but otherwise my experience there has been positive.
